Sometimes, the best food is found in those unassuming spots that you wouldn't even notice. When you have consistently delicious food, you don't need to jazz up the exterior to attract people - let the food speak for itself. That's certainly the case at this one unassuming little roadside stop where you'll find some of the best BBQ in Louisiana. Roll up your sleeves and dig in!
If you find yourself driving down LA-23 on the way to the tip of the boot, make sure you stop at LA-23 BBQ.
If you're heading down that way for an epic fishing excursion, consider this place your good luck charm.
The unassuming roadside shack may not look like much, but they're serving up some of the most mouthwatering BBQ you'll ever taste.
There's no indoor seating, just some good old-fashioned picnic tables under an overhang.
And it sits right on the side of the train tracks. There are no frills in good BBQ, remember that.
Specializing in central Texas-style BBQ, this is the type of BBQ joint where they stay open until they sell out.
And they sell out every day, so get there early.
Low and slow is the name of the game here. From brisket to chicken, all of the usual suspects appear on the menu here.
They offer sandwiches, plates, and meat combos too. They also take large catering orders, too, which will take your next event from good to great in one sniff.
Be sure to get some sausage; it's one of their most popular items.
You'll love it so much that you might want to get a link or two as a snack for the ride home.
Don't forget about the sides!
Coleslaw, baked beans, and mac and cheese... yes, please! Some BBQ joints serve sub-par sides, but not at LA-23. The sides here are almost as good as the main meats!
For more information, be sure to visit the LA-23 BBQ website, and don't forget to give them a follow on Facebook, too. LA-23 is one of the most scenic drives in Louisiana, and it ends with some of the best fishing in the entire world. Have you ever been?
